LTC6803-2/LTC6803-4
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
For a given sample rate, a delta-sigma converter can
achieve excellent noise rejection while settling completely
in a single conversion—something that a filtered SAR con-
verter cannot do. Noise rejection is particularly important
in high voltage switching controllers, where switching
noise will invariably be present in the measured voltage.
Other advantages of delta-sigma converters are that they
are inherently monotonic, meaning they have no missing
codes, and they have excellent DC specifications.
Converter Details
The LTC6803 ADC has a 2nd order delta-sigma modulator
followed by a SINC2, finite impulse response (FIR) digital
filter. The front-end sample rate is 512ksps, which greatly
reduces input filtering requirements. A simple 16kHz,
1-pole filter composed of a 100Ω resistor and a 0.1≤F
capacitor at each input will provide adequate filtering
for most applications. These component values will not
degrade the DC accuracy of the ADC.
Each conversion consists of two phases—an autozero
phase and a measurement phase. The ADC is autozeroed
at each conversion, greatly improving CMRR. The second
half of the conversion is the actual measurement.
Noise Rejection
Figure 25 shows the frequency response of the ADC. The
roll-off follows a SINC2 response, with the first notch at
4kHz. Also shown is the response of a 1 pole, 850Hz filter
(187µs time constant) which has the same integrated
response to wideband noise as the LTC6803 ADC, which
is about 1350Hz. This means that if wideband noise is
applied to the LTC6803 input, the increase in noise seen
at the digital output will be the same as an ADC with a
38
wide bandwidth (such as a SAR) preceded by a perfect
1350Hz brick wall lowpass filter.
Thus if an analog filter is placed in front of a SAR converter
to achieve the same noise rejection as the LTC6803 ADC,
the SAR will have a slower response to input signals. For
example, a step input applied to the input of the 850Hz
filter will take 1.55ms to settle to 12 bits of precision, while
the LTC6803 ADC settles in a single 1ms conversion cycle.
This also means that very high sample rates do not provide
any additional information because the analog filter limits
the frequency response.
While higher order active filters may provide some im-
provement, their complexity makes them impractical for
high channel count measurements as a single filter would
be required for each input.
Also note that the SINC2 response has a 2nd order roll-
off envelope, providing an additional benefit over a single
pole analog filter.
